Taken in about 1900-10, this photograph has been sent to us by Margaret Saunders, a descendent of the Barwick families of Perkin and Lumb. Unfortunately Mrs Saunders has no knowledge of whose wedding it was. Can anyone identify any of the people in the photograph? If you can identfy the place or any of the 26 people in the photograph, let us know.

Someone must know who this couple are.
